Testo Picasso's Mandolin - Guy Clark
Testo della canzone Picasso's Mandolin (Guy Clark), tratta dall'album Boats to Build
Like Picasso said in 1910
I'm gonna paint me a mandolin
Could be cubes, it could be curves
I like to mix the paint with nerve
I load my brush and fire away
Paint me a hole in the light of day
Well, you can play it straight or play it from left field
You got to play it just the way you feel
Come on, boys, play it again
Play it on Picasso's mandolin
Well, it's coloring books and drinking wines
It's hard to stay between the lines
Now there ain't no rule if you don't break it
Ain't no chance if you don't take it
Said the damnedest thing he'd ever heard
Was trying to learn to sing from a mockingbird
Well, you can play it straight or play it from left field
You got to play it just the way you feel
Come on, boys, play it again
Play it on Picasso's mandolin
Well, Picasso said before he died
"There's one more painting I'd like to try"
Well, the doctor held his breath
And then Picasso nailed a mandolin
He's born in Spain and died in France
He was not scared of baggy pants
Well, you can play it straight or play it from left field
You got to play it just the way you feel
Come on, boys, play it again
Play it on Picasso's mandolin
Play it straight or play it from left field
You got to play it just the way you feel
Come on, boys, play it again
Play it on Picasso's mandolin
